Happy Saturday everyone! Not only is it a cosy christmassy weekend, it is also time for our Saturday Selection feature, double win! This week we have five inspiring couples to introduce to you, sharing snippets of their love stories as well as sneak peeks into their gorgeous wedding days. Let's take a look...

A Retro Romance

We just love when a wedding creative gets married! The lovely Carly of Carly Rodgers Photography married her lovely hubbie Alan earlier this year. The couple had a legal ceremony the day before followed by a personal humanist ceremony and celebration the next day filled with super personal and gorgeous retro details. Good friend Janine Walker from Rinkadink Studio captured all the lovely moments which you can see more of over on Carly's blog here and here.

A Vintage Romance

Lovers of all things vintage, Rachel and Cormac chose the very chic AMPM cabaret club in Belfast city for their engagement shoot. Cormac proposed to the lovely Rachel during afternoon tea at The Dorchester among china cups and petit fours so the couple wanted to recreate the moment for their wedding invitations. Close friend and super photographer, Joe Laverty of Root and Branch Photography was the photographer of choice for this lovely couple who helped them recreate their proposal. After ten years together, Rachel and Cormac tied the knot in Summer this year. Stay tuned for their fabulous vintage style wedding coming soon! You can see more of Rachel and Cormac's stylish shoot over on Joe's blog.

Destination Love

Kimberley & Kenny’s Wedding was the perfect mix of traditional and bohemian. Held in April this year, the ceremony was in the village church just around the corner from Kimberley’s family home in Co. Tyrone followed by a reception in Larchfield Estate. These lovebirds have been friends since secondary school and got together when they were at University. Kimberley went travelling to Australia for a year, but their love stuck it out and they were reunited on her return home and have been loved up ever since! Their day was captured by Sarah Bryden Photography and you can see the rest of their big day here.

For the Love of Food

Elisa and Barry tied the knot and made it a one of a kind, fun loving affair. Having American and German origins, along with Irish heritage the two were joined in the beautiful Nile Lodge hidden in the center of Galway city. Homemade vegan dishes and appetizers greeted family and friends after the ceremony and then The Kai restaurant did a wonderful job adapting to vegan food for their guests. Their perfect day ended with traditonal pints of Guinness along with Irish music at the Crane Bar later that night. Christian McLeod and Mark Clinton captured their day perfectly.

A DIY Dream

Joyce and Dennis' day started off with the threat of rain but luckily stayed away for their gorgeous portraits. The couple then tied the knot in an intimate and personal ceremony which bride Joyce decorated to her heart’s desire. After the ceremony, they headed on to the restaurant, where there was the cutest sweet table full of homemade cakes and sweets, baked by, guess who.. the bride herself! Their day was caught on camera by Blooming Light Photography and you can see the rest of their DIY day here.

Thanks to all our lovely couples and their photographers for sharing snippets of their big days with us, we're really honoured to be able to feature you all.
